Box 1 contains approximately 60 ground plans, elevations, and sectional drawings for various theatrical productions in Europe. Most of the designs are unlabeled, though some mention locations including the Boboli Gardens in Florence, Italy, and the Theatre Pigalle in Paris, France, as well as designs for Lebender Leichnam (The Living Corpse) and Der Schwierige (The Difficult One), signed by Austrian set designer Oskar Strnad. Many of the plans are wrapped in letterhead for "Schauspielschule des Deutschen Theaters / Direktion Max Reinhardt."

In addition, there is an inventory from Hugo Baruch & Cie. for costumes for “The Miracle” (1911); an inventory in English for "Miracle Costumes and Properties"; two hand-colored black-and-white photographs of actors in costume labeled "Das große Salzburger 'Welttheater'" and "'Mirakel' Stand der Madonna"; an 11 pages of a manuscript in German (incomplete), beginning: "Von der salzburgischen Szenerie wird man immer zu Festen angeregt, ja aufgefordert"; and a rolled panorama photograph of the Hollywood Bowl, ca. 1920s.
